Silver had gone out searching for the Iblis of Fire, and his search had taken him to the Soleanna Street Markets. There, he was a little... sidetracked. Mainly, because of the bright colours and dazzling affair. It was difficult to concentrate on his objective with so many people and things.

He was to keep a look-out for things that looked like an 'Iblis of Fire'. Reddish clothing, or literally on fire. The zoo had held no clues, and he was not allowed to touch the salamanders. It was strange to be looking for Iblis in a toy shop, let alone a shopping center, but here he was, and it was probably by another's hand that he was guided there...

It wasn't entirely his fault that he was attracted to bright lights and colours, motion, and soft objects. Not to mention there was a sale~! He supposed he could just take a few moments out of his quest to dally in the toy shop and have a little childish fun. Besides, there was a sale.

Silver skipped inside and began looking eagerly. They had everything from bouncy balls to kazoos, from silly string to silly putty, and pogo sticks and Pokumunz cards, stuffed animals and plastic soldiers, toy guns and doll houses, science kits and toy ovens. He felt like a little kid again in the store, which was probably close to the truth, disregarding how tall he appeared by his spines, due to his height insecurity. The boy felt that he was due it. It was not a distraction! He was working hard, and this was a break! It wasn't... mandatory that he work every moment of every day now, right?

He played with the toy ovens, and sent a few bright balls flying in the aisle-ways. The next aisle over, he had a little tiff with a kid a foot smaller than him and at least fifty pounds tubbier over which Pokemunz would win by which transformation: Supermongochompicus turning into Kawaii-chu, or Greatevilscarythingy turning into OMGITZAMONSTAH! The kid threatened to beat him up, so he walked away quickly. Kawaii-chu wasn't that bad, really, right?

The stuffed animal aisle really got his attention though, and he spent time figuring out which one he wanted to buy. He was going to get one, no question about it. The hedgehog wondered if that Mephiles-god would like a stuffed animal too, and if it would make him happier. There was a strange glowing light near the bottom of the pile...

[OOC: Going to close this since it seems TD isn't going to show up, will be on disabled list, little bit of god-modding to get you out of here, Silver-mun]

The hedgehog would find a beaten up and clumsily sewn doll, red eyes and wire-suspended jewel glowing with a strange light. It seemed to be... staring at him. The world darkened around him. It could see his soul... It's head turned around slowly, making a full 360 while something inside it made horrible cracking and popping noises like the snapping of bones.

"Come and plaaaaay... Play with meeeee... Plaaaaaaay~" It chortled, hovering out of the horrified hedgehog's grip. The eyes grew darker. It hovered near, seams beginning to open, and the black stitching writhing like there were thousands of c*** inside and trying to burst free. Blood dripped from sharply clawed hands, but disappeared before reaching the floor. The mouth stitching unraveled and showed thousands of tiny pointed teeth in a distorted grin.

He stopped looking cute back at the Damien impersonation, really.

What came after that, only Silver knew. What was visible was a beyond-frightened hedgehog crashing through the glass doors of the shop, flailing, scurrying, and raving something about 'The eyes, the eyes that will steal your soul with the red...'

[OOC: And I'm not very good at god-modding, not to mention uncomfortable, so that's probably the full extent of it you'll see on this board...]
